Two separate points. First, the mag ban showed there true colors regarding what the think civilians should be allowed to own. As far as I know, they were the only fireams company backing it. I doubt Bill Ruger would have backed it. Bill Sr backed the 10rd mag limit as a compromise because the origi...

There are aftermarket kits to slick up the feeding. I'd give Nate Kiowa Jones a holler, as this is his stock and trade. May as well have him slick up the whole thing. As for the .38's not shooting well for ya, you might need to load them a little hotter. You're probably not sealing the chamber, and...

Marlin does not recomend Blazer ammo for the marlin 1894`s and they say don`t use them in the operator manual. I understand CCI is now making brass cased blazers so that may have changed. I do not think FMJ ammo in a tubular magazine is a good idea either. I bought it used, no manual, so I didn't k...

.357 Marlin is a picky eater?
Sometime back I picked up an older 1894 carbine in .357. No idea HOW old but it is a pre-safety. At the time I only had some lead SWC rounds on hand in both .38 and .357. It doesn't want to feed them reliably. Last weekend I picked up some Blazer 158g SJHP and it fed almost flawlessly. Almost becaus...

Thanks, I'll price ammo at the show tomorrow I guess. I'm still trying to justify purchasing this thing. The only thing I hunt is paper and the odd clay pigeon that gets tossed on the far bank at the annual river shoot. I don't have a purpose for it (other than it goes bang) and they want $400+tax i...

OT-Using Leverevolution ammo in a semi-auto?
I have a line on a Remington Model 8 in .35 Rem. Researching to see if ammo is even still available, the only thing that popped up in a quick search was the Hornady Leverevolution (or however it's spelled :x ). At almost $1/rd I don't know that I'll jump on it but if there's no other factory ammo op...

The original (1930?) All Quiet on the Western Front is hard to beat IMO. In fact, go ahead and read the book first. I read it 2-3 times before ever catching the movie on TCM or somesuch. the only major complaint being the cylinders of the WWI era radial engines NOT spinning with the propellors like ...
